Wait a minute here. 16k for a paint job? Lets see..... No way can you spend 1000 bucks on "paint and prep supplies" So 15k for 3 months work. 5k a month. I don't think someone worked 40 hours a week

I just bought PPG at $99 for 2 qts. + cat + thinner and sundries and it was $200.03 with tax total for 1/2 gallon. You got robbed ;) Last year a gallon with all the goodies was just over $400. And I

I became curious tonight and pulled out my PPG Jobbers book and guess what I found out... PPG caries over 65 DIFFERENT lines of paint, 40 different lines of Clear Coat. Ranging from CHEAP to EXPENSIV

I heard those ads every day as a kid in So. CA. "Earl Schieb, I'll paint any car, any color, $29.95". Even as kids we would finish the line... "and the door handles, bumpers and windows, no extra cha
